If there's one thing Aussies enjoy doing over the summer months, it's getting outdoors and indulging in a picnic or BBQ. This is why your marketing campaign, promotional giveaway, or corporate gift program will benefit immensely from investing in some of the promotional cooler bags Planet Bags has available this summer.

Logo Branded Chiller Bags for Australians

One of the most popular options for organisations seeking to provide corporate gifts is these excellent value Pinga Cooler Bags that also function as a seat! Each bag is 11 litres in size, meaning it can hold up to 24 cans of drink. Planet Bags also decorates each chiller bag with your printed or digitally transferred logo design. No wonder Aussies love taking the Pinga bag to sporting events, picnics, trade shows, and more.

If you're keen on a more traditional chiller bag, the logo emblazoned Asteroid Promotional Backpacks make great gifting options. Take your lunch or picnic kit with you wherever you go using these easy-to-carry bags that sit comfortably on your back. Planet Bags decorates the Asteroid chiller with your logo so you can give them to recipients and enjoy ongoing promotion everytime the cooler is used (which is often over an Aussie summer).

And finally, for those looking to keep their lunch or snack cool while on the move these Single Cooler Bags are the perfect option. We print your logo directly onto the front, and you can use these bags as bulk promotional items or as tip-on incentive gifts. Small in size, each bag fits lunch or snacks comfortably making them ideal for those on a budget or anyone seeking a small daily use chiller bag.

The use and functionality of a backpack extend well beyond the schoolyard. An excellent backpack can become a friend for life. Ever wondered why some people never bother to jump on the bandwagon and craze of laptop bags, compendiums, clutch bags and others? Well, a certain percentage of them are suckers for a classic, durable backpack. What's the best backpack on the market right now? Undoubtedly it's Australia's own Caribee.

The History of Caribee Outdoor and Travel Bags

As one of Australia’s favourite backpack, travel and outdoor supplier, Caribee prides itself on the ability to provide their esteemed customers with premium, modern and practical backpacks.

Operating out of their main warehouse located in the Sydney CBD, this backpack, travel, and the outdoor supplier combines classic design sensibility with modern technology to create quality custom backpacks that make ideal business gifts.

It is this commitment to producing durable, appealing bags that lead our team at Promotional Bags Direct to seek out Caribee and begin stocking their extensive range of bags for promotional branding and personalisation.

Why Buy a Custom Caribee Backpack?

When looking for a backpack, first and foremost, one must rule out the possibility of developing back pain and exerting pressure on the shoulders. At Caribee, the manufacturers are inspired by the South American piranha-like species known as "Caribe" which is compact, dominant, and resilient.

It’s time to shake off the frost of winter and start getting ready to embrace the sun. The flowers are starting to bloom, and the smell of barbeques are just starting to poke their head out.

Spring has always been a time of re-growth, so why not take this perfect opportunity to re-brand. A new logo, or even a new design to keep your business fresh and moving with the seasons. Out with the old, in with the new.

Promotional Cooler Bags With Your Logo Branding

To help with building your new identity, and to make sure you are putting your best foot forward, anchor your brand’s character with you own customised cooler bag. The advantage of this is that cooler bags are useful items that will be kept and used often throughout the year, but in these warmer months specifically. By personalising and logo branding your cooler bags, you are getting your company’s name out there and increasing visibility.

Might I suggest the following models for your consideration:

The Pinga Cooler Bag not only is a large 11L cooler, but it can also be used as a seat, meaning you won’t have to haul an esky AND a lawn chair with you, making it more likely for whoever gets this to make it a staple in their barbeque needs.

The Eccles Lunch Cooler Bag. If like me, you were used to carrying your lunch around in disposable plastic bags from the grocery store, you might be in need of finding a new way to carry your lunch to work that is more environmentally friendly.

Do yourself and your business a favour. Have a look at your current branding, and have a look at what a promotional cooler bag can do for you.

Custom Branded Event Bags for Australians

Replace the traditional trade show bag with these amazing, environmentally friendly, cotton bags. These are affordable and lightweight which renders them a great replacement to the traditional non-woven trade show bag. There’s so many printing options available on these, let alone choosing the bag itself. The most popular are the long handled bags which are great to fill with goodies then carry on your shoulder leaving both hands free. This promotes your business as caring about the environment, something that more and more people are prioritising everyday.

It’s no shock that we’re approaching summer, the seas are getting warmer and the beaches are getting busier. With that comes an increased demand for new, stylish beach bags. Now there is no need to look further as we have a great selection of beach bags in stock ready to be tailored to you and shipped out across Australia! Not near a beach this summer, then I feel very sorry for you, BUT that doesn’t mean you can’t get the most out of these fab bags. A great idea is to fill them with blankets and goodies for a gorgeous picnic date at a local park with loved ones (and this way you can avoid annoying sand)!

Another great option for trade shows and large scale events are these lightweight backpacks! They take up barely any room so are great to order in bulk and are easy to transport to your trade events! Fill them with more promotional goodies or just slip a business card in each, they are easy to carry and by being worn on the back they become an amazing walking advert for your business! These can also be great for gyms and schools to pack in that gym kit for sports lessons or a quick workout at the end of a long day!
